David Gan, Founder & General Partner of OP Crypto This CryptoMondays NYC will feature a 30 minute fireside chat with David Gan, Founder & General Partner of OP Crypto, a venture capital fund that invests in the most promising blockchain entrepreneurs. David is one of the only former tier-1 centralized exchange executives to launch a crypto venture capital fund, with native ties to both the western and eastern markets. Prior to founding OP Crypto, he worked at top traditional firms including Qiming Venture Partners (Tier 1 $6bn AUM VC in China) and Morgan Stanley China (Investment Banking Division-M&A). He was recognized for the Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia award in 2019. In addition, he served as a senior executive for three years at Huobi Global where he managed Huobi’s principal investment strategy. During his time at Huobi, David played a key role in accelerating top tier blockchain projects including Polkadot, Algorand, Difinity, and Casper Labs. In 2021, he founded OP Crypto to invest in projects that it believes will help shape the future of corporate governance and transfer power from centralized entities to content creators in the upcoming Web 3.0 ecosystem. With over $25M in inaugural fund backed by Huobi Ventures, Galaxy Digital’s Vision Hill FoF Platform, Digital Currency Group, Mirana Ventures (Bybit), and The Brooker Group, OP Crypto aims to support entrepreneurs seeking to build global products in the blockchain space. David’s experience uniquely positions OP Crypto to provide best-in-class portfolio support, go-to-market strategy, and developer relations. Since launch, the fund has built a portfolio of star projects including Merit Circle, Aurory, and Metamundo.
